Lago Vista Real Estate

Lago Vista is a growing lakeside community on the north shore of Lake Travis, the largest of Texas’ Highland Lakes and featuring over 200 miles of shoreline. This Travis County development, established as a lake resort in the 1960s, has slowly transitioned into year-round living complete with golf courses, wineries, and unlimited water recreation. Rated by niche.com as one of the five best towns in Texas to live, mentioning the city’s excellent education system, healthy lifestyle, fair weather and business climate, Lago Vista is a little bit of heaven on earth.

Although Lago Vista homes for sale have an average build date of 1994, buyers find well-established modest homes to brand new executive estates and everything in between. Vacation homes and condominiums are also available, ideal for those seeking a quick weekend getaway from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Homes are situated directly on the water, perched on a hilltop, overlooking a golf course, or blended into the surrounding hill country landscape. Lago Vista lots for sale are also available and range from less than one acre to more expansive acreage, ideal for creating a custom dream home near the water.

While many Lago Vista homes enjoy breathtaking vistas of Lake Travis, all have stunning views of the surrounding Texas Hill Country with its ruggedly beautiful landscape, oak trees, rolling hills and breathtaking sunsets. Home styles range from modest cabins, weekend lake houses, and condos to majestic villas, estates, and manors. Exteriors include brick, stone, stucco and siding with features like pools, spas, outdoor entertaining areas and covered patios and porches.
